Time Flys

I can't believe it's almost Christmas!! It sure has snuck up on us this year. Jordan and I have been so involved with our daily routines that time has just flown by. Jordan finished up his last day today of his firearms qualification. After seeing all the targets he brings home everyday, I have full confidence in his abilities to use his gun. Sadly this week he also got OC pepper sprayed which was not fun. After they sprayed him he had to do various tasks like shooting, take downs, fighting, etc before he could wash it off and begin the long painful decontamination process. This was no walk in the park.

Meanwhile at home, I have been busy putting up Christmas decorations and getting ready for the holidays. We will be staying here in Florida and are excited to have all of Jordan family come down and join us. The weather has been great being in the mid 70s which doesn't feel like Christmas weather, but we don't mind the warmth at all. We love it.

Even with it being so warm, Jordan and I went to one of our academy friend's house last week and had a bonfire. It was fun to roast hot dogs and s'mores and just hang out. Because our friend has so many fruit trees around her house, we got to pick a lot of oranges, tangerines, lemons, and a fruit called kumquats. Store bought fruit doesn't even come close to how juicy and big these things were. Since then we have been enjoying making frozen lemonaid and eating oranges over the sink like watermelons because they are seriously that juicy. YUM!
